7,000 animals, was a beloved city institution which hosted more than one million visitors
annually and had an economic impact upon the City of Fort Worth of more than $124 million
annually, and on July 7, 2013, celebrated the birth of the second elephant calf born at the Zoo
and only the third calf born this year in the United States. She added that Asian elephants were
an endangered species, with only 30,000 to 40,000 remaining in the wild and the elephant
population faced so many risks, it was of great importance for zoos to breed Asian elephants for
the future conservation of the species. Since establishing its elephant breeding program in 1986,
the Fort Worth Zoo had become an international leader in elephant conservation, helping to
establish the International Elephant Foundation, a conservation organization dedicated to save
elephant species worldwide. She stated that the birth of this calf would help ensure the future of
elephants not only in the wild, but also ensure they remained at the Fort Worth Zoo for
generations to come, and the Fort Worth City Council asked all citizens to wear pink in
